[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The opposite. I LOVE newborns but babies turn into toddlers. If I could skip those years I'd have six babies. Fwiw I have three and the baby phase with the third was the easiest. You are more confident and spend a lot less mental energy worrying about small stuff. What do you dislike about newborns? The lack of sleep? The crying? For me I just tell myself the sleep thing is four months long. I can do anything for four months. [/quote] Op here. For me it’s the lack of sleep for sure. And also the stress over germs. And the crying really does stress me out. Pumping and breastfeeding. Difficulty traveling. Bottle sterilizing and washing. Baby led weaning. Making purées. Wake windows. Being on a nap schedule. Not being able to take your eyes off off the hazardous toddler for one second without fearing for their life. Once my second child hit 20 months it all felt so much more manageable to me. [/quote]
